"live and let die" is a bunch of racist crap - james bond goes to Harlem, Florida and Jamaica to take on the 'negroes'.
"octopussy" is two pretty fun, if banal, short stories sandwiching one entirely inconsequential one. Some soviet double agent has been sent a Faberge egg as payment for services rendered, so Bond goes to the auction to see if he can spot a KGB agent trying to bid up the price. And does. That's it.
